4 Elite-16 PF E i Features Elite-16 Power Factor e i Owner s Manual Power Factor Technology provides over 80 Amps peak charge surplus current for power-starved amplifiers Wide Bandwidth Linear Filtering Technology for stunning audio and video clarity Series Multi-Stage Protection provides virtually maintenance-free AC surge suppression Zero ground contamination circuitry protects critical digital components Retractable LED lamps illuminate a cabinet or rack full of equipment Introduction For over 34 years, Furman has pioneered the development of AC power products for the most demanding audio, video, and broadcast professionals. Though the need for pristine AC power is nothing new, the Elite-16 Power Factor i s technology and its unique implementation are revolutionary and without peer. The extreme AC demands encountered in the professional audio/video arena have required technological developments far in excess of typical home theater/audiophile power products. In studios, live sound, and broadcast facilities, breakdown is unacceptable. Equipment failure or poor performance is costly. The same is true of today s home theater. Our solution based technology, extensive engineering expertise, and robust build quality have answered the challenge of today s corrupted power lines, and led to the creation of the Elite-16 PF E i. Today s power lines are plagued with RFI and EMI noise. When connecting sensitive equipment to your home s power outlet, AC noise couples into your system s critical components. This AC noise masks low level signals and cripples performance. This low level content is critical because it relays the crucial harmonics and ambience in audio, as well as the depth and clarity in video. With Furman s exclusive Linear Filtering Technology, televisions, projectors, DVD players, amplifiers, and processors are fed linearly-filtered AC power. This dramatically reduces noise, ensuring consistent peak operation regardless of load conditions or the time of day. For the first time, you will see and hear your theater or audio system as it should be uncompromised. Another critical feature is our exclusive Series Multi-Stage Protection. This virtually maintenance-free surge suppression assures the highest level of AC protection possible, without sacrificing itself when the offending surge is severe no damaged equipment, no service calls, no down time. Further, our famous retractable front panel LED lamps allow easy viewing of either a rack or cabinet full of equipment, even when your theater lights are off. At the center of the Elite-16 PF E i is our unique transient Power Factor Technology circuit. For the first time, low-level analog, digital, and video components are not modulated or distorted via the power amplifier s extreme AC current demands. Further, the power amplifier sees a highly filtered, extremely low-impedance supply of AC power. The Elite-16 PF E i, in fact, has in excess of 9 Amps of continuous current reserve (over 80 amps peak charge) for the most extreme peak power demands. This technology enables power amplifiers and powered subwoofers to operate at peak efficiency, reaching levels of performance previously unattainable. No longer will your amplifier s performance be at the mercy of your home s incoming AC power or inferior AC protection/ filtering devices. The net effect is as if your power amplifier virtually doubled in power and improved immeasurably in quality. When employing the Elite-16 PF E i, you will immediately notice far clearer, stunningly focused sound and visual images from your system. Video presentation will be crisp and colors true with greater gray and black scale definition, as well as noticeably improved depth and clarity. Sonic transients will be startlingly fast with bass fundamentals that shake foundations with their weight and visceral impact. Mid and high frequencies will bloom with sweet, non-glaring ease while imaging improves dramatically, all the while remaining true to your system s inherent virtues.

5 Installation Unpacking Before unpacking your unit, inspect the carton for any obvious severe damage to the box and internal protective materials. If internal damage is likely, contact the carrier who delivered the unit before proceeding with unpacking. If shipping damage is evident on the product, then please contact your shipping carrier. Save all shipping and packing materials, as you may need them if you should ever have to return the unit to the factory for servicing. The box should contain the Elite-16 PF E i unit, detachable AC cord, rack mount kit, owner s manual - warranty registration card. If anything is missing, please contact Furman Customer Service. Fill out and return your warranty registration card. Registration is recommended because it can be used to establish whether the unit is within the warranty period should your original ownership documents be lost, and it assists us in informing you about upgrades or other vital information. Safety Information - Warnings Please read and observe all of the safety and operating instructions before the Elite-16 PF E i is operated. Retain these instructions for future reference. Do not disassemble or modify in any way. No user-serviceable parts inside. Keep away from moisture and avoid excessive humidity. Do not allow liquids or foreign objects to enter the unit. ENGLISH FRANÇAIS EspaÑol The Elite-16 PF E i should be serviced by qualified service personnel when: The power supply cord or plug has been frayed or cut. Objects have fallen or liquid has spilled into the unit. The Elite-16 PF E i has been exposed to rain or other moisture. The Elite-16 PF E i does not appear to operate normally, or exhibits a marked change in performance. The Elite-16 PF E i has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged. Power Source The power source to which the Elite-16 PF E i is connected should be adequate for use at 16 Amps. The Elite-16 PF E i will operate with a10 to 13 Amp service AC outlet. However, nuisance tripping at the circuit breaker panel may result if the system s continuous current draw exceeds the rating of the service breaker or fuse. Placement The Elite-16 PF E i is manufactured with four rubber feet for placement on any table, cabinet, shelf, or floor. These rubber feet may be easily removed with a standard Philips screw driver when rack mounting adjacent to other components. Placement or proximity to other components is not critical, and the Elite-16 PF E i does not produce any appreciable heat under standard use. The Elite-16 PF E i may also be rack mounted in a standard 19 (483mm) rack by attaching the Elite- 16 PF E i rack ears. They are attached to the chassis by installing each rack ear with (3) pan-head Philips screws contained within the Elite-16 PF E i rack mounting kit. The third screw used for each rack ear is for the center hole, located towards the rear and aids in stabilizing the unit when rack mounted. Connection AC Cable Routing Once the Elite-16 PF E i is placed, its AC cord s female end must be plugged into the male IEC connector located on the lower left hand side of the rear panel (when facing the rear panel). Next the male plug must be connected to an appropriate socket (see current rating recommendation above). Connecting Components to the Video Component AC Outlet Banks The Elite-16 PF E i s four Video Component AC Outlets should be employed for critical video components such as DVD

6 Elite-16 Power Factor e i Owner s Manual players, projectors, plasma, or LCD video screens. When employing the Elite-16 PF E i for a 2-channel audio system, a pre-amplifier and or CD player would be ideally suited for these outlets. Connecting Components to the Audio Audio-Video Linear Filtering Power Banks The Elite-16 PF E i s four rear panel Linear Filtering Audio Audio-Video Power Outlets should be employed for any component not connected to the Video Component AC Outlets, with the exception of receivers, power amplifiers and powered sub-woofers. These outlets still possess exceptional AC noise filtering to maximize system performance. Connecting Components to the High Current Power Amplifier Banks All power amplifiers, receivers and powered sub-woofers should be connected to these four outlets. Many audiophile and premium home theater systems will have combined continuous current demands below 16 Amps. It is rare, in fact, for large power amplifiers to draw more than 3 Amps continuously. For superior performance, it is vital that an AC filter possess extraordinarily low impedance, and have the capability to pass peak current demands far in excess of the RMS (continuous) current rating. The Elite-16 PF E i was designed to more than meet this demand. Additionally, our transient Power Factor Technology circuitry effectively creates a current reserve in excess of 80 amps peak up-charge that is cleaner and faster than a dedicated line from your local power station. This feature eliminates any concern towards the current compression that can result from typical power conditioners, and the peak power reservoir benefits any power amplifiers performance dramatically. Note about Power Factor Technology and Current Consumption When Power Factor Technology is employed with even the most sophisticated circuit breakers, it effectively adds to the perceived current load. Though the Elite-16 PF E i was designed for steady 16 Amp operation, and peak current demands many times that, the maximum total continuous current draw may be limited to a range between Watts per Elite-16 PF E i employed. The RMS current available before the circuit breaker trips varies due to what is referred to as a vector load. Simply put, the type of power supplies or electronic circuits connected to the Elite-16 PF E i will have an effect on its circuit breakers perceived current load, and therefore, when it will trip. Though the benefits of Power Factor Technology far outweigh the small reduction in continuous current draw, this must be accounted for when constructing a large system with high current demands. The total continuous current draw of most electronic components is typically listed in Watts by their AC input cord or AC connector. Watt ratings are simply added to determine the total system RMS current draw. It should also be noted that the Elite-16 PF E i s Power Factor Technology has no actual effect on the power drawn from your utilities power meter. The Elite- 16 PF E i draws a mere 12 Watts independent of other components, so it may be left on at all times. Retractable Front Panel Lights and Dimmer Control The Elite-16 PF E i includes a front panel mounted dimmer control for the two retractable front panel light tubes. The dimmer knob controls the brightness of both light fixtures. Turn it clockwise to increase brightness; turn it counterclockwise to decrease brightness. When the light tubes are fully inserted flush to the front panel, the light circuit is turned off via an internal micro-switch. Whether the light tubes are retracted or nearly flush with the front panel, there will be no appreciable heat regardless of dimmer setting due to the efficiency of our full light spectrum LED s.

There is an audible clack when the Elite-16 PF E i is first turned on or off. This sound is produced by the Soft Start circuit s 30 Amp relay engaging or disengaging. There is virtually nothing in the Elite-16 PF E i s construction, design, or componentry to wear over the life time of the product, and there is no power draw from your electric service meter aside from the LED power indicator, lamps, and relay circuits. For this reason the Elite-16 PF E i may be left with its power engaged permanently at an extraordinarily negligible cost per month. This is an added benefit, as many audio/videophiles find performance improves significantly when leaving low-powered components permanently charged (turned on). In fact, this is true of the Elite-16 PF E i. Though it will function flawlessly right from its shipping carton, the performance of its circuit parts will improve after approximately two weeks of continuous use or break-in. ENGLISH FRANÇAIS EspaÑol AC Transient Voltage Surge Suppression and Extreme Voltage Shutdown Extreme Voltage Shutdown Indicator: This LED is normally off. It monitors AC wiring faults for example, accidental connection to an open neutral (in some countries) or a wiring fault with in excess of 3000VAC 3 present. The Series Multi-Stage Protection (SMP) circuit senses voltages that are so high that operation would be impossible and shuts the power down before damage can occur. Upon initially applying power to these units, the Extreme Voltage indicator LED will light if the input voltage is above the extreme voltage cutoff, and power will not be applied to the unit s outlets. If the unit has been operating with an acceptable input voltage and subsequently that voltage exceeds 275V, it will shut off power to the outlet and the Extreme Voltage LED will light. The power switch must be re-set once the AC service has been corrected, or; the unit is connected to an appropriate AC outlet. Protection OK Indicator: Although the Furman SMP circuit assures virtually maintenance free protection from transient voltage spikes and surges, nature has a way of occasionally creating electrical forces that are beyond the capabilities of any Transient Voltage Surge Suppression device to absorb without some degree of damage. In the rare instance that this occurs, the blue LED located in the center of the front panel will dim, even though AC power is present at the unit s outputs. If this happens, some level of protection from voltage surges will remain, but the Furman s clamping voltage rating will be compromised. The unit must be returned to Furman Sound, or an authorized Furman Service center for repair. NOTE: If the main power is above the high cutoff voltage and has caused the unit to remove power from its outlets, it cannot restore power without the operator manually turning the unit off, then on again. Avoid turning the unit back on, without first checking the source of the problem, and perhaps changing the AC source.

8 Elite-16 Power Factor e i Owner s Manual Satellite and Cable Transient Voltage Surge Suppressors The Elite-16 PF E i features transient voltage surge suppression for both cable and satellite lines utilizing standard coaxial connectors. As these surge suppressors are in-line, they will require an additional cable to connect from their output to the control device requiring protection. All in-line surge suppressors feature our exclusive ground contamination free technology. This aids in eliminating audio buzzing, and the video hum-bars that can result from typical in-line suppressors. Further, our cable and satellite suppressors are DVR friendly as well as HD digital television ready. Both DC carrier signals as well as high bandwidth signals can pass through our circuit. In fact the bandwidth is less than 0.5dB loss at 2 GHz! To connect your cabling to these in-line protectors, simply follow the in and out indications marked next to the Cable and Satellite connectors. NOTE: It is not possible to make an in-line cable or satellite protector maintenance-free as we have accomplished with the 230 VAC line. This would necessitate limited signal bandwidth that would not allow the signal to pass. Under extreme conditions, it is possible that the surge suppression in one of these devices could sacrifice itself after a catastrophic event. If the cable or satellite signal will no longer pass through our protector, please contact your local service representative, installer or Furman for servicing. To test this, simply disconnect the incoming and out going cable from the Elite-16 PF E i. Connect the incoming connector to the component that formerly received the out going connector, thus by-passing the in-line protection. If the signal is present (but not when used with the Elite-16 PF E i) then the protection circuit is damaged (assuming it worked properly before a storm or catastrophic event).
